Macallan launched the Archival Series in 2015, with each new release celebrating a unique print advertising campaign that ran from the 1970s to the 1990s. These ads played a crucial role in establishing Macallan’s appeal as a single malt whisky during a time when single malts were not as popular as they are today.
The 8th release in Macallan’s Archival Series, called Folio 8, pays homage to a 1980s advertising campaign titled “Colossus of Nose,” which references the Colossus of Rhodes. This whisky was aged in a combination of first-fill and refill European oak sherry casks. There are only 450 bottles available, exclusively for the U.S., marking a first for the Archival Series.
Folio 8 is bottled at 43% ABV (86 proof) and is limited in availability, being offered only to members of The Macallan Society and private clients through themacallan.com.
